  Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, I rise today in tribute to Mr. Cedric 
Flounory for his many years of federal service to the Internal Revenue 
Service, on the occasion of his retirement.
   During his forty years of public service, Mr. Cedric Flounory has 
worked tirelessly within both the United States Air Force and the 
Internal Revenue Service. Mr. Flounory rose through the ranks 
ultimately becoming an Air Force Major. Throughout his military 
service, Mr. Flounory garnered awards for his steadfast dedication, 
earning the Air Force Good Conduct Award, the Marksmanship Award, and 
the Meritorious Service Medal with an Oak Leaf Cluster. After eight 
years in the Air Force, Mr. Flounory continued serving the public with 
a career that has stretched more than thirty years at the Internal 
Revenue Service. A caring professional, Mr. Flounory has been praised 
for his work at the IRS, receiving awards like Employee of the Month 
and a Performance Award. His service both on the ground through 
military service and in the office through the Internal Revenue 
Service, portrays his dedication to the nation.
   In short, Mr. Cedric Flounory has honorably served our country and 
the people of the 13th Congressional District. Please join me in 
honoring him for his forty years of federal service as we wish him well 
on his retirement.
